Cerebellar Infarctions in Basilar Artery Migraine: A Case Report
Journal Title: Nepal Journal of Neuroscience - Year 2006, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
We report a 29-year-old, non-smoker, nonalcoholic woman with episodic classical migraine (frequent monthly attacks of headache associated with giddiness and vomiting for last 10 years). Ultimately, she developed sudden left sided blindness and ipsilateral hemiparesis which was preceded by occurrence of an abrupt left eye flash of light, pounding occipital headache, severe giddiness and ataxia. Computed tomography of brain showed left sided cerebellar infarct. Migraine-related huge infarct at this site is very uncommon. In this report, the authors report this entity along with a brief review of the literature.
